Hello!

Sorry, I'm spanish, and I don't speak english very well.

I want to search a file in one of the folders of my ASP.NET WebSite. I'm using c# and I want to search the file.

I used
string[] t = Directory.GetDirectories("\\ArchAudio");

but I don't know how to set my web server like the root directory.
If I use Directory.SetCurrentDirectory("~"); it fails

Somebody could help me?

Thank you!

You can resolve ~ to the physical path with this:

Server.MapPath("~")

Then you can use that physical path in the System.IO class methods.

-Peter

If I do this Server.MapPath("~");

the directory will be D:\ and I want the root of my webSite

D:\code\WebSite

I'm not sure I understand.

~ resolves to the root of the web application. This is not what you want?

Please post the real directory paths of you web app and desired path so we can see the relationship to better understand what you want.

Perhaps I don't understand what you meant by "but I don't know how to set my web server like the root directory."

-Peter

not exactly.

My web is (for example) D:\code\WebSite I consider the root of my website this directory, and I want that my code runs also in another computers if change my website to another computer, because if I write the "d:\code\website" it will fail. Do you understand to me ?

Sorry, because my english is very poor

thanks

In that case, the code that Peter suggested should work.

string myRoot = Server.MapPath("~/");

should give you something like D:\code\WebSite
